10. From neutrino to wine…
To minimize the intrinsic radioctivity of the detector, all materials have been selected using germanium photon detectors of very low level natural radioactivity
With such detectors : measurement of 137Cs in wine
Activity 137Cs (mBq/l)
Nuclear
fallout
Tchernobyl
Activity 137Cs  year

Presence of 137Cs in the Bourgogne bottle !
Not 1934 but later then 1950 (activity ~100 mBq/l)
